Well Done.
Dr Rinella has always been the doctor everyone wants.....he's a great listener, explains things so you understand and always answers your question honestly. I've had 2 surgeries from Dr Rinella and have returned to my normal funShow morections and thank him all the time for making me normal again. There are few doctors that travel to foreign countries and provide their services at no cost to people in need so they can have a normal life again. Three cheers for Dr Rinella

Dr Rinella gives you straight talk. He doesn’t immediately jump to Surgery to try and solve your spinal problems. He is truly compassionate and hardworking.. he fixed the issues with my neck where four other surgeons has failed to do so.
I have just completed my 5th back surgery and Dr. Rinella is absolutely fabulous. This by far has been my easiest recovery to date. I am very happy with the results.
